Did I surprise you Aggie? I just had to be part of the celebration. I wouldn't have missed it for the world! You are my sister-in-law and this virtual baby shower is for you and my nephew, Micah!

We have an Italian themed menu in honor of you and your heritage. I know how much pizza and Italian food has been such an influence in your life. After all, your dad has been in the pizza and restaurant business for over 30 years. You taught me how to make grilled Naan pizzas, so I had to make these Grilled Naan White Pizza Bites for your virtual baby shower. We have a huge menu below to include: Appetizers, Non-Alcholic Drinks, Salads, Entrees and Desserts.

Aggie, you are so special to me. You have inspired me in the kitchen and in life. You encouraged me to start this blog several years ago. Even though I haven't blogged in over a year, I still cook and bake, I still love to try new recipes, and I still love to share recipes with family and friends.

We are sooooo happy and excited for you, Larry, Sammy and Gina! We love you dearly and we're counting down the days (I'm sure you are too) for baby Micah to join the family.

Preheat grill to medium heat. Brush one side of Naan Bread with olive oil. Place side with olive oil down on grill rack. Grill for a few minutes until bread starts to get light grill marks and is slightly crisp. Take off grill, place on baking sheet(s) and set aside.

Spread 2 tablespoons pesto on each of the non-grilled sides of the bread. Top with mozzarella cheese and tomato slices. Place a few teaspoons of ricotta cheese around each pizza. Close grill and cook for about 5 minutes or until cheese is melted.

Remove from grill, sprinkle with basil and cut into slices.

Cut into quarters for bite-size pieces

Serve as an appetizer or it's also great as a meal with a salad Here's the roundup of recipes from some of Aggie's Blogger friends....what a spread they put out for everyone.

Jamie, your post totally made my day!! I'm so lucky to have you as family, Micah is going to love spending time with you, mike & the girls!You know I love these naan pizzas, they are perfect!!Thank you for a wonderful and thoughtful surprise!! xoxo

Hi and welcome to Mom's Cooking Club! This is my small place where I like to share recipes, ideas and tips. I am not a gourmet cook. I'm just a home cook who loves to make simple, easy & delicious meals for my family. I'm always trying new recipes to add variety and keep everyone's tastebuds happy. In the process, I'm teaching my twin teenage daughters the basics of cooking & to have fun in the kitchen. So, thanks for visiting and welcome to the club!
